Month: April 2013

Thanks to those hardy souls who joined us on the first PedalGR ride of 2013 on 4/24. Amy and I are looking forward to another fun season of rides! So much more of this city to explore. We checked out the flooding in Riverside Park, and also from the Oxford St Bridge on the SW side.

“A Dinner and Bikes evening includes a gourmet, vegan and gluten-free buffet dinner prepared by Joshua Ploeg, a presentation about transportation equity and the everyday bicycling movement by Elly Blue, and a near-complete excerpt from Aftermass, Joe Biel’s forthcoming documentary about the history of bicycling in Portland. The event is followed by a book signing with all three presenters, and some time to peruse our traveling bicycle and cooking themed bookshop.”

Tickets will be $10, which includes the dinner and presentation/movies. Come share the your love of food and bikes and join a lively discussion on how Grand Rapids can continue to encourage growth of our local bicycle culture. Please buy your ticket in advance so we can plan food appropriately.

Alcohol: This event is a BYOB event. If you are over 21, please feel free to bring your own beer, wine, or cocktails to enjoy with dinner. There will be no alcohol provided by the event organizers.

Chairs: Please note that there may be a limited number of chairs available at the venue. Please bring your own folding chairs if you have them.
